On: SVG 2 new features

"The thing is, almost nobody is using SVGs on the Web."

I disagree.

I regularly visit codrops and they show a lot of cases how you can use them. A lot of the frontend web development is using them a lot.

http://www.ns.nl/ the dutch train company, for example uses a mix of inline svg, background image svg and scr tags with svgs.

https://www.spotify.com/nl/ uses SVG in the logo, the account icon and the arrows.

https://www.digitalocean.com/ svg is best practise for having vector images on your site.

The nice thing of SVG is the compatibility with css, for the web it is a nice tool to use.

Of course there are counterexamples but most websites aren't using SVG. Out of the Alexa top 20 only live.com is using svgs everywhere where they make sense and only yahoo.com is using them in some parts of the website.
